    Reading Blood Meridian right now and if there’s any accuracy to the violence what the Comanches did to the US Army early on in the book absolutely pales in comparison to literally anything the Glanton gang gets up to, or even just the Judge

    White people are the most fucked up by far

      I think that’s kind of the point, right? That McCarthy shows this “barbaric” scene towards the beginning, and then shows the supposedly “civilized” people act far worse. Like, no wonder the Comanche did what they did!
